Herbicide for Multiple DNR Sites

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR), through the Office of Resource Conservation (RESCONVERV422), has awarded a competitive sealed bidding contract to Tiles In Style for the procurement of herbicides. The contract, identified as 25-422DNR-RESCO-P-87380, covers the purchase of specific herbicide products, primarily Fusilade (Fluazifop-P-butyl) in 1-gallon containers. The contract is funded through the Wildlife Restoration and Basic Hunter Education Federal Assistance Program and is designed to support invasive plant management at state parks and conservation sites.

The contract, valued at $1,346.88, has a performance period from the award date of October 20, 2025, through June 30, 2026. The procurement process required vendors to include shipping costs in their bid prices, with awards made to the lowest bidders for each line item. The herbicides must be less than 24 months from the production date, and the contract stipulates that partial shipments will not be accepted. The award was part of a broader solicitation that included multiple vendors and covered 10 different herbicide chemical types, with Tiles In Style being one of the selected contractors for this specific line item.
